Meet the team
We share profiles of collaborators from our sixteen consortium partner organisations
make to achieve healthier air, a
healthier life and a healthier world.
I like that this project focuses on
behaviour, a focus I believe can be
a large part of the solution for
creating better air quality.
What is your role in ClairCity
and what interests you in the
project?
What do you hope for the future
of your city?
Mirjam Fredriksen, Årnes
Senior Systems Developer at NILU,
Norway
Where in Europe do you live?
I live in a small village about 60km
from Oslo in Norway named Årnes.
What is your role in ClairCity?
Currently I work at NILU, the
Norwegian Institute for Air Research
as a senior system developer. I took
my degree in IT Technology and
programming 15 years ago. I am
developing the ClairCity app.
What interests you in the
project?
Personally, I am very engaged in
the subject of air quality and the
changes every one of us needs to

I really like that my town is small
and close to the nature. In the last
10 years the population has
increased a lot and the traffic goes
right through the town centre. I
hope that the town will keep
developing, but that the traffic will
be led outside of the centre. I hope
they keep our beautiful green space
besides the river as public space for
everyone to enjoy together.
Carlo Trozzi, Rome
Chief Technical Officer at Techne
Consulting, Italy
What is your current job and
where are you based?
I’m Chief Technical Officer at Techne
Consulting, a consultancy working
on energy and environmental
issues. I’ve worked with Techne
Consulting for over 30 years. I live
in Rome, one of the most beautiful
cities in the world with a good
climate and its historic centre.
What interests you in the
project?
I have a scientific interest in air
pollution issues in Europe, and new
languages to communicate the
origin of air pollution that can relate
it better to the behaviour of
citizens. I’m interested to see the
game, and all other tools that will
be produced by the project. In a
more general view, as a european
citizen, I have an interest in better
air quality and quality of life in our
cities. I hope to start a common
path for all European cities to
drastically reduce private motorized
traffic and a gradual prohibition of
fossil fuel powered motor vehicles.
